Quotes to ponder:

"Food guilt comes from the idea that eating is wrong, and that when you’ve eaten you’ve made a mistake and must set it right."

"The pattern is: the fear of fatness."

"Trying to figure out the perfect formula, to stay inside that narrow golden window of eating 'right' is beyond stressful and confusing."
